Not Exactly Italian Sausages with Peppers image

The way most people make Italian sausage and peppers is to smother the sausage in lots of sautéed peppers. It's good, but I expand on the theme with plump, juicy tomatoes and a big handful of basil. And turkey sausage adds a healthy twist to this traditional dish. Try it spooned over pasta for a truly Italian experience.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 pounds Italian-style turkey sausages, cut on an angle into 2- to 3-inch lengths
2 medium red onions, cut into 3/4-inch dice
2 large red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and cut into 3/4-inch dice
6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
7 ripe plum tomatoes, cut into 3/4-inch dice
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
  • 2. Add the onions, bell peppers, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables soften, about 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes, basil, and oregano. Cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes and sausage are heated through, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot.
